A new order of Augustinians

[nmoerbeek]

I recently found out about a new order that is located at a local Abby (St Micheal’s Abby in Silverado Ca) that I have dealing with. The Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem an Augustinian order that only celebrates the extraordinary mass and try to follow the format for the original Augustinians. Currently their is only one priest and 2 others being trained in Rome. Rev. Dom Daniel Augustine Oppenheimer made a very touching appeal for funds at a mass we celebrated at the end of a Lent pilgrimage which he walked with us on. In his newsletter he mentioned that he had a large outstanding bill at the seminary where they were being trained.

Anyway it is kind of an opportunity for all of us to help fund a new order of traditional priests so I thought people here might want to be included on it.

They are currently in residence here. Their founder does appear to get around so maybe someone here has mentioned them before.

Fr. Oppenheimer is a very holy man, and is in desperate need of support. If you would like to read up on his order, take a look here. Just know that any and all support, be it money both great and small or prayers would be greatly appreciated! They are very very small, and very very poor, but they make up for it in holiness and zeal.

p.s. nmoerbeek, I was on the pilgrimage too! A wonderful experience to say the least!
